N.H. racing at Uttoxeter and Worcester

There is jumps racing in Britain this afternoon at Uttoxeter and this evening at Worcester, with many jockeys riding at both meetings, such as Tony McCoy, who has several interesting mounts. However trainer Evan Williams and jockey DP Fahy look the team to follow at Uttoxeter, where William Butler looks likely to win his fourth chase in the space of 11 days at 17.10 CET and Winter Star, who can get off the mark for the same connections half an hour later in the maiden hurdle. At Worcester, trainer Alison Thorpe, currently in great form, can follow suit and saddle the winners of the maiden hurdle at 19.35 in St.Mellion Freeway (Noel Fehily), runner-up this CD on his only British start, and Nortonthorpe (Charlie Poste), an easy winner on Monday at Newton Abbot, in the handicap hurdle at 22.05
